Type-1 and Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Systems [AI- eXplained]

Fuzzy sets are suitable for modeling human linguistic uncertainties, and the resulting fuzzy systems can then be used to perform inferences based on a linguistic rulebase. They have been successfully used in numerous applications, particularly controls. This short paper introduces the basics of type-1 and interval type-2 fuzzy sets and systems, particularly for newcomers. The online full paper at IEEE Xplore provides detailed examples for better understanding, and interactive components for a hands-on exploration.
